Bulbs Plentifully 
Prices on many varieties of Bulbs, partic¬ 
ularly the better varieties of recent introduc¬ 
tion, are lower this fall than ever before. This 
is your opportunity to plant those varieties 
you have always wanted. Prices on some 
standard varieties also have been reduced, there¬ 
by saving you money. Take advantage of these 
low prices for they may never be so low again.

to grow and bloom or your money will be re¬ 
funded. Read the Burpee Guarantee on this

Burpee’s Bulbs; they are truly the Best that 
Grow. Send us your order now. All bulbs 
listed in this catalog, with few exceptions, 
must be planted in the fall; they cannot 
be had at any other season of the year. 
ORDER EARLY Bulbs ordered before they are ready to 
send out will be booked for delivery and orders filled, in 
rotation as received, as quickly as possible after the bulbs 
reach us from our growers. All bulbs, with just a few ex¬ 
ceptions, are ready for delivery after the middle of Septem¬ 
ber, and all hardy varieties can be planted outdoors any 
timefrom then on until the ground freezes hard. Daffodils, 
however, will do better if planted before the ground 
freezes.
